\"pink
Justa buncha pics, celebrating spring – little exposition, so the TL;<\/strong>DR crowd can have their safe space too. These azaleas are from the expansive lawns at Walkabout Estates.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, these aren’t big enough to show off much yet, but it’s a sign that the ginkgo tree (Ginkgo biloba<\/em>) that The Girlfriend bought last year is doing fine.<\/p>\n

\"new
She just purchased another of these this past weekend, a dwarf variety that may remain potted on the deck.<\/p>\n

We can’t have April without another appearance of these little flowers.<\/p>\n

\"flowers
But this time, I can tell you what they are, since you’re old enough now:<\/strong> they’re from a blackhaw viburnum (Viburnum prunifolia<\/em>,) which seems far too harsh a name for the pleasant little tree, but parents can be cruel.<\/p>\n

But enough about the expansive yards here. How about a couple of photos snagged before meeting with a student?<\/p>\n

\"red
This Japanese maple was backlit in places, so I maneuvered around until I could get a nice contrast of the colors, then cropped down pretty tight to concentrate on just a handful of leaves. If you stare too long you’ll burn out your red and blue retinal cells.<\/p>\n

And then, considerably less color, but still cool – today’s favorite.<\/p>\n

\"exposed
I don’t know what this tree is right now, but I’ll find out. And I can’t determine why<\/em> I like root systems such as this, but it’s probably something suppressed from my childhood that’s best left unexamined.<\/p>\n

Man, I didn’t even break 250 words – whoops, there we go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
